The FBI announced that they’ve opened up 388 investigations to determine the motive for the attack and will be issuing about 135,000,000 subpoenas to take statements.

They are really looking for anyone who can shed some light on this massively difficult project which sone have likened to landing a man on the moon.

Totally agree which is why I wasn't surprised Ben Carson or other loyalists of his/my generation weren't picked.

Me too! I think JDV is smart, articulate and can express Real American values quite well.
A debate between The Ho and JDV is going to look like a Benihana chef preparing a meal. Big Grin

My wife just made an interesting point:

A debate between Vance and Harris would be darn near as much fun to watch as the Trump/Biden fiasco.

(Damn, missed it by this much... Big Grin )

One of my theories is that the shooting was purely psychologically motivated, not political at all.

Crooks was characterized in high school as intelligent but quiet, and that he was routinely bullied. He failed miserably when he tried out for the school rifle team, at one point striking the wall opposite to the one he was shooting next to. He did become a member of a local gun range, perhaps where he gained better shooting skills. He then had access to an AR-15 purchased by his father (from Botach).

Perhaps he was addressing low self-image issues when he chose to target a high-profile individual. It didn't matter that Trump was the nominee apparent to the political party he was registered with.

Just turned off the TV The RNC is taking a break, but Trump is now the official nominee, and Vance the official VP nominee as well. I haven't watched Greg Gutfeld in awhile, but he had some great things to say in regards to Dems and the assassination attempt. But that chick who came back from maternity leave, I didn't realize she was the leftist part of the Fox team until she started with some stupid shit. Convention starts again at 6:45pm EST.

Tentatively, the VP debate will take place on CBS, on either July 23 or August 13.

In 1980, RNC nominee Ronald Reagan wanted to name Jack Kemp as his VP. Kemp was a young, handsome, extraordinarily articulate Congressmen from NY state. Kemp was also the architect of Reagan's economic policy. Kemp had a BS in economics, but was able to absolutely annihilate Keynesian Econ Profs in debates. Kemp was the man and reason I finally became a Republican.

The party power brokers fought Reagan. They told him that Kemp was too conservative and wouldn't appeal to the moderates. They pushed Bush as the safe, moderate choice. Reagan, for whatever reason, acquiesced to their choice and the rest is history.

In Bush, Reagan had a man who looked at Reagan's economics policy like the ape men in "2001: A Space Odyssey" looked at the black monolith. As a consequence, Bush almost completely killed the Reagan economic revolution, brought the country into recession and got his butt kicked in 1992 by a loose-zippered, used car salesman from Arkansas.

Had President Reagan stuck to his guns, he would have still beaten Carter soundly and the Reagan Revolution would continued, and grown, under 8 years of President Kemp.

JD Vance isn't Jack Kemp, but he is a brilliant young man. He may be the the closest thing to Kemp available today.

I think this is a BRILLIANT choice.

Good. I hope the national Dems are all but conceding and trying to minimise their down ballot race losses. IF I was a dem I’d suggest eating the shit sandwich in 2024 and keeping my powder dry for a 2028 open seat and at least act like tacking towards the center left Vs going further hard left. But they’re not paying me for my opinions. On second thought they should piss away a Billion on ads in 2024 and hep the local tv and radio economies.

Trump and bullet trail on X


^^^^


Wait…..am I missing something? I don’t see how the bleachers and people sitting on them behind Trump would be out of the picture….even with that photo taken from the ground the bleachers on the live news channels are still high enough to be in the picture I think????? Photoshop bullshiy going on here? Am I wrong?



Nope it looks right, power lines in the bottom right corner. Photographer was shooting from his feet.

Yeah, I wasn’t sure but you very well be right. I’ve seen bullet trails before in pics from my range on occasion, it just struck me there was no background people in the image….God knows how many assholes photoshop shit just to get a picture. Either way…..thank God Trump escaped serious harm or worse….that was wayy too close!



This photo has been bugging me. Isn’t the bullet trail too flat for being fired from an elevated position 150 yards away? Is the stage really elevated that much? Maybe it’s just the camera perspective but I’m also thinking photoshop was used.

Considering what could have been...what almost was...today is a great day. Congratulations to our Republican presidential nominee President Trump, and to his running mate J.D. Vance. Serious men for a serious job.

She just said the most mind-numbingly stupid things about female SS agents anyone can say. Sometimes I have to wonder if she isn't comic relief or if she is as dumb as she seems.
